Liverpool, Chelsea and rags seem a long way off getting into the top four this season. Of course one of them might, but right now it looks like Arsenal might be the only one of them to do it. If Spurs don't have their usual issues with the manager at the end of the season, then they could also be regular contenders for a top four spot, meaning only two of the originals might to make it the following year.
I'm not sure it will make much immediate difference to Sky's enthusiasm for their favourites though, as that is based more on those teams ability to attract TV audiences rather than their actual performance on the field. As other teams like us and Spurs keep appearing that will change, but it will take a few years. So I expect them to keep fawning over their pets and hailing every CL qualification as a rebirth for now.

I bet most scum and dipper fans wouldn't be able to say the same. Bad old moneybags City had the audacity to break up the cartel and we have never been forgiven for it.

They are trying to Polish the turd, but all they are achieving is rolling it in glitter. Everyone knows what's under the surface of their article.

I think half the problem is a lot of people are thick enough not to realise what's under the surface and they take what is written as gospel. If you tell enough people enough lies then it will be redirected as fact

Clue: it isn't with us

I thought they wrote Chelsea off just as they would us. Whereas as you say Utd and Liverpool are still the SKY 2. End of. However shit.
